Affordable WOMEN'S Adventure Riding Jacket & Pants OPTIONS That Are NOT Pink!



 

The original article that started all this hub-bub deal-finding...

...offers links to an entire ADV start up kit for $568. What it DOES NOT offer is the riding-gear portion of the kit for women. We caught a lil hell for it and promised to keep digging--And ...Well... I'll be damned... we dug something up.


BUT FIRST... A wee disclaimer:


We don't profess that budget gear replaces high end brand gear. That said, we don't buy that high end brand gear is always what it says it is either. My lil' jury is still out on all that. What we ARE saying / professing in these budget gear articles is that you don't have to be wealthy to ride a motorcycle. You don't have to conform to the ADV fashion show that it has become either. You don't have to bow to brand worship. We want you to get out and ride. Thats where the heart of it all works. That said, in short, IF you are in a position where you cant afford the gear you want or are like us and don't follow that trail... this article offers some possibilities for you.

 
 

So let's get to it...


AFFORDABLE

WOMEN'S ADVENTURE RIDING

JACKETS & PANTS




In this report we are going to offer a couple options for each gear item. The idea is to get you thinking and researching and / or buying and getting out there to bust some bugs.


 


RIDING JACKETS...




ALPHA CYCLE GEAR

All Season Women's Motorcycle Jacket≈ $39






ALPHA CYCLE GEAR SPECS CLAIM...


  • 3 YEAR WARRANTY.

  • 5 CE APPROVED ARMOR 2 SHOULDERS, 2 ELBOWS, 1 BACK - REMOVABLE. WATERPROOF ALL SEASON

  • FULLY ADJUSTABLE ON 10 SPOTS.

  • HAND WARMER POCKET

OUR THOUGHTS...Seems like some big claims for 39 bucks... but then again... we are talking about 39 bucks. AT FACE VALUE.... this is a legitimate jacket. If you pick it up please let us know your thoughts... (storymotoadv@gmail.com) or hit us up here on the homepage contact form or our Facebook Page or Facebook group


 



VIKING CYCLE

Ironborn Armored Women's Motorcycle Jacket≈ $59





VIKING CYCLE SPECS CLAIM...


  • DURABILITY: Equipped with high intensity impact tested CE approved protection, this reinforced motorcycle riding jacket features armored padding on the elbows, spine, and shoulders offering premium protection


  • ALL-SEASON: The Rock Tex 600 outer shell of this jacket has been waterproof tested ensuring that it keeps you and any personal belongings dry in the rain. Also featuring multiple ventilation vents for back, chest, arms, and removable zip out liner to keep you cool during hot summer rides.


  • MULTI-POCKET: Featuring dedicated pockets for phones, earphones, wallets, and a headphone wire system to avoid distraction. These multiple internal and external pockets along with durable encasing zippers offer a secure and convenient ride.


  • REFLECTIVE & ADJUSTABLE: 360 degree reflective high visibility lining on the upper torso ensures other motorists are aware of your presence. The adjustable velcro straps at the waist and cuffs allows for your desired customizable fitting while generously outlining your physique.


  • AFFORDABLE QUALITY: We manufacture our jackets with the highest quality materials at an affordable price. Try our jackets without worry because you will notice the quality of workmanship and ride in style.




OUR THOUGHTS... I've held the men's version of this jacket in my hands and looked it over thoroughly. They claim their products have a higher quality feel than their direct competition and they are correct. The only draw back to this jacket as an adventure option is that it is not as long as I'd like it to be for that purpose (adventure). That being said at $59 I still think it is a great opportunity at owning a decent riding jacket. Again, If you pick it up please let us know your thoughts...
